In 2007, Kiteboard 4 Cancer was founded by three Gorge locals inspired to put on a small event for community good. One of those founders, Tonia Farman, led the event for its first fifteen years as it grew into a beloved community tradition. After several years away, Tonia has returned to help guide KB4C into its next chapter, reigniting the event with the same spirit of purpose and community that started it all.There will be kiteboarding, winging, foiling, art-ing, eating, swimming and more fun activities for our community to come take part in!
For the past 17 years, KB4C has benefited organizations such as Children’s Hospital Seattle, Children’s Healing Art Project, John Wayne Cancer Foundation, Celilo Cancer Center, OHSU Adolescent & Young Adult Clinic, and Project Koru, the local organization here in Hood River that was started because of Kiteboard 4 Cancer.
New this year, KB4C will select three beneficiary organizations whose work strengthens the Gorge community in the areas of cancer care and support, and/or mental health and wellness.
This approach allows the event to support several impactful programs each year while staying focused on the well-being of our community. Organizations aligned with these focus areas are invited to apply to become a KB4C beneficiary. Learn more at KB4C.org
